U.S. Rep. Dan Lipinski (IL-3) will be hosting a Veterans Fair on June 17 in Orland Park. Rep. Lipinski’s staff will be joined by the Illinois and U.S. Departments of Veterans Affairs and other organizations to assist veterans with a variety of issues, including military personnel and medical records, veterans’ claims and benefits, medals earned but not received, VA Hospital billing, placement in VA homes, GI Bill information and other veterans’ issues.

“My Veterans Fairs are great opportunities for local veterans and their families to get the assistance they need in one convenient location,” Rep. Lipinski said. “My office has worked with countless veterans by cutting through the red tape to solve problems with the VA, housing, old military records, medals they have not received and many, many other issues. I am proud to provide this service to the men and women who have sacrificed for our country.”
